  • Pramoedya's Developing Literary Concepts- by Martina Heinschke
    Between G elanggang and Lekra: Pramoedya's Developing Literary Concepts- by Martina Heinschke Introduction During the first decade of the New Order, the idea of the autonomy of art was the unchallenged basis for all art production considered legitimate. The term encompasses two significant assumptions. First, it includes the idea that art and/or its individual categories are recognized within society as independent sub-systems that make their own rules, i.e. that art is not subject to influences exerted by other social sub-systems (politics and religion, for example). Secondly, it entails a complex of aesthetic notions that basically tend to exclude all non-artistic considerations from the aesthetic field and to define art as an activity detached from everyday life. An aesthetics of autonomy can create problems for its adherents, as a review of recent occidental art and literary history makes clear. Artists have attempted to overcome these problems by reasserting social ideals (e.g. as in naturalism) or through revolt, as in the avant-garde movements of the twentieth century which challenged the aesthetic norms of the autonomous work of art in order to relocate aesthetic experience at a pivotal point in relation to individual and social life.* 1 * This article is based on parts of my doctoral thesis, Angkatan 45. Literaturkonzeptionen im gesellschafipolitischen Kontext (Berlin: Reimer, 1993). I thank the editors of Indonesia, especially Benedict Anderson, for helpful comments and suggestions. 1 In German studies of literature, the institutionalization of art as an autonomous field and its aesthetic consequences is discussed mainly by Christa Burger and Peter Burger.

    THE THORNY ROSE: THE AVOIDANCE OF PASSION IN MODERN INDONESIAN LITERATURE1 Harry Aveling One of the important shortcomings of modern Indonesian literature is the failure of its authors, on the whole young, well-educated men of the upper and more modernized strata of society, to deal in a convincing manner with the topic of adult heterosexual passion. This problem includes, and partly arises from, an inadequacy in portraying realistic female char­ acters which verges, at times, on something which might be considered sadism. What is involved here is not merely an inability to come to terms with Western concepts of romantic love, as explicated, for example, by the late C. S. Lewis in his book The Allegory of Love. The failure to depict adult heterosexual passion on the part of modern Indonesian authors also stands in strange contrast to the frankness and gusto with which the writers of the various branches of traditional Indonesian and Malay litera­ ture dealt with this topic. Indeed it stands in almost as great a contrast with the practice of Peninsular Malay literature today. In Javanese literature, as Pigeaud notes in his history, The Literature of Java, "Poems and tales describing erotic situations are very much in evidence . descriptions of this kind are to be found in almost every important mythic, epic, historical and romantic Javanese text."^ In Sundanese literature, there is not only the open violence of Sang Kuriang's incestuous desires towards his mother (who conceived him through inter­ course with a dog), and a further wide range of openly sexual, indeed often heavily Oedipal stories, but also the crude direct­ ness of the trickster Si-Kabajan tales, which so embarrassed one commentator, Dr.

The literature on the previous two elections, in 1999 and 2004, tended to focus on issues of democratic principle, such as whether the elections would be free and fair and conducted without violence, the attitude of the military and whether the losers would 2009/01 accept the decision of the electorate. There were also questions about the capacity of election administrators to deal with the logistical problems of conducting elections in a huge and geographically dispersed country like Indonesia. These questions have now largely been answered in a positive way.

    PERCEPTIONS OF MODERNITY AND THE SENSE OF THE PAST: INDONESIAN POETRY IN THE 1920s Keith Foulcher Nontraditional Malay poetry in Indonesia, the forerunner of "modern Indonesian poetry," is generally said to have begun in the decade be­ tween 1921 and 1931 in the publications of three young Dutch-educated Sumatrans, Muhammad Yamin (born in Sawahlunto, Minangkabau, 1903), Rustam Effendi (born in Padang, 1903), and Sanusi Parid (born in Muara Sipongi, Tapanuli, 1905). Through their writing of Western-influenced poetry in Malay or Bahasa Indonesia, all three saw themselves as con­ tributing to the birth of a modern Sumatran (later Indonesian) culture, the basis of a new Sumatran (later Indonesian) nation. As such, they were among those who laid the foundation of the cultural nationalism which in the repressive conditions of the 1930s came to represent an alternative to the overtly political expression of Indonesian national­ ism . In the following pages, I wish to suggest (1) that through their writing Yamin, Rustam, and Sanusi all articulated a cultural stance which involved both a response to what they knew of European culture and their sense of an indigenous cultural heritage; (2) that there were important differences between the stances of Yamin and Rustam in this regard; and (3) that the poetry of Sanusi Pan6, evolving out of Yarnin's, established an approach to modernity which became the conventional stan­ dard for the burgeoning "Indonesian" poets of the 1930s. * * * CINTA Galiblah aku duduk bermenung Melihatkan langit penuh cahaya Taram-temaram bersuka raya Melenyapkan segala, fikiran nan renung. Apa dikata hendak ditenung Hatiku lemah tiada bergaya Melihatkan bintang berseri mulia Jauh di Sana di puncak gunung.

  • ASPECTS of INDONESIAN INTELLECTUAL LIFE in the 1930S
    PUDJANGGA BARU: ASPECTS OF INDONESIAN INTELLECTUAL LIFE IN THE 1930s Heather Sutherland Pudjangga Baru, the "New Writer," was a cultural periodical put out in the colonial capital of Batavia by a group of young Indonesian intellectuals from 1933 until the invasion of the Netherlands Indies by Japan in 1942.1 In Bahasa Indonesia, the term pudjangga means "literary man, man of letters; author, poet; linguist, philologist."2 34 The choice of this term for the title of the monthly was no doubt also influenced by an awareness of its historical connotations, for the word can be traced back through such Old Javanese forms as bhujanga to an original Sanskrit root associated with sacred and priestly learning. It implied nobility and integrity as well as literary ability; and it is therefore no accident that the writings appearing in it claimed high idealism and a sense of mission. The purpose proclaimed by Pudjangga Baru became more fervent as the years passed. In the beginning, it described itself simply as a literary, artistic, and cultural monthly. At the start of its third year it declared itself a "bearer of a new spirit in literature, art, culture, and general social affairs."^ At the beginning of its fifth year it claimed to be the "leader of the new dynamic spirit to create a new culture, the culture of Indonesian unity."1* In 1928, when the second All-Indonesia Youth Congress swore the famous oath to work for "one fatherland, one people, and one language" Pudjangga Baru pledged itself to work for the development of the national language and also to strive for a national culture, adding "one culture" to its 1.

    F o r m s o f C e n s o r s h ip in t h e D u t c h I n d ie s : T h e M arginalization o f C h i n e s e -M a l a y L it e r a t u r e Hendrik M. J. Maier The Minister of Colonial Affairs in the Hague wrote to the Governor-General of the Netherlands East Indies in Batavia on June 2,1913: Strong action should be taken against the public preaching of revolt against Dutch authorities, against those extremely tiresome efforts to discredit the best intentions of the Government, against the sowing of hate and discordance between the various races which has become the order of the day. Tolerating these manifestations or leaving their repression to the constantly varying opinion of the judiciary in the Indies—which in practice amounts to the same thing—is like committing political suicide. Moreover, it seems to me that such regulations should be applied without distinction even though the non-European press which causes the greatest possible danger for order and tran­ quility requires a stricter control than the European press that does not reach so far and needs the help of the native and the Chinese press to penetrate those layers of the popu­ lation. Introduction of a preventive control has, of course, been made impossible by the changes in the Press regulations of 1906. Therefore, a new means of repression should be looked for, not by the judiciary but by administrative authorities.1 It was yet another comment in the continuous correspondence between authorities in The Hague and Batavia on a subject of constant anxiety—the freedom of the press.

  • BAB I PENDAHULUAN 1.1 Latar Belakang Disfemisme Adalah Istilah
    BAB I PENDAHULUAN 1.1 Latar Belakang Bahasa Indonesia menuju bahasa yang berkembang, kosakata mengalami perkembangan tidak hanya dalam hal kuantitas, tetapi juga kualitas. Berbicara mengenai kualitas, kata tidak akan terlepas dari perubahan makna (Pateda, 2001: 158). Chaer (2007: 314-317) juga menyatakan bahwa dalam pembicaraan mengenai perubahan makna, biasanya dibicarakan juga usaha untuk menghaluskan atau mengasarkan tuturan dengan menggunakan kosa kata yang memiliki sifat itu. Usaha menghaluskan ini dikenal dengan nama eufemia atau eufemisme, sedangkan usaha untuk mengasarkan disebut dengan disfemia atau disfemisme. Disfemisme adalah istilah bahasa yang digunakan untuk memperkasar makna dari satuan leksikal agar terkesan negatif oleh pembaca dan pendengar. Hakikat pemakaian disfemisme adalah upaya menggantikan kata yang bernilai rasa positif atau netral dengan kata lain yang dinilai bernilai rasa kasar atau negatif (Masri, 2001: 72). Sesuai dengan pendapat Chaer (1995: 145) yang menyatakan bahwa disfemisme merupakan kebalikan dari eufemisme, yaitu usaha untuk mengganti kata yang maknanya halus atau bermakna biasa dengan kata yang maknanya kasar. Selain itu, Chaer (2007: 315) menambahkan disfemisme sengaja dilakukan untuk mencapai efek pembicaraan menjadi tegas. Hal ini secara otomatis akan mempengaruhi kelaziman pemakaian kata atau bentuk kebahasaan lainnya. Selain itu, pemakaian disfemisme mengakibatkan kecenderungan-kecenderungan tertentu bila dilihat dari nilai rasa, seperti terasa menyeramkan, mengerikan, menakutkan, menjijikkan, dan menguatkan (Masri, dkk., 2001: 72-74). Pada zaman sekarang ini pemakaian disfemisme sering ditemukan dalam media sosial untuk menyampaikan dan meluapkan rasa ketidaksenangan para netizen terhadap seseorang. Tujuan lain dari pemakaian disfemisme ini adalah untuk menunjukan rasa tidak suka dan hal negatif terhadap tindakan dan peristiwa yang terjadi. Disfemisme dapat diciptakan melalui bahasa kiasan (Iorio: 2002).

  • A Psychological Thriller in Donna Tartt's the Goldfinch Abu Fanani
    A Psychological Thriller in Donna Tartt’s the Goldfinch Abu Fanani (A Lecturer In Faculty of Adab and Humanities UIN Sunan Ampel Surabaya) Abstract In this article, the researcher analyzes a psychological thriller in the form of anxiety in Donna Tartt’s the Goldfinch . The researcher then uses psychological theory. The researcher analyzes the main character that undergoes a psychological worry; anxiety. At last, the researcher draws conclusion that the main character, Theodore Decker undergoes recurrent recollection(s), feeling humiliated, worry, fear, nightmares, and feelings of terror. Key Words : anxiety, feeling humiliated, worry, fear, nightmares, feelings of terror. Introduction Literature and society remain inseparable in that their existence influences each other; on one hand, literature affects society. On the other hand, society affects literature. Levin (Scott, 1962:126) states that literature and society are mutually connected. Both affect each other in that society gets the literature’s effect, on the other hand, literature gets the society’s effect. Similar to this statement, Olsen (1978:203-204) has the idea of the influence of literature to society as well as of society to literature. The researcher may well, as to the influence of literature to society, refer to a work by Harriet Beecher Stowe’s Uncle’s Tom’s Cabin or Life among the Lowly influences the society to be social emancipation, to abolish racial discrimination between black and white people (Hardjana, 1981:70-71). English philosophers and poets are said to have
